Tor Bridge Server VPS for Operators in Censored Regions

You can run obfs4, meek-azure, and Snowflake on a single offshore VPS with separate ports and independent configurations. obfs4 remains the workhorse transport, providing strong traffic randomization that defeats most automated censorship middleware. Snowflake adds proxy diversity by tunneling through volunteer WebRTC peers, and meek-azure piggybacks on cloud TLS to defeat SNI inspection in a handful of remaining contexts.

We provide configuration templates that pre-set ServerTransportListenAddr, ExtORPort, and BridgeRelay 1 with no DirCache exposure. Bridges run quietly and avoid appearing in the public Tor consensus, which is exactly what you want.

BridgeDB rotates bridge IPs across email, HTTPS, and Moat distribution paths. You can submit your bridge to one channel only or hold private bridges for direct distribution to communities you trust. Private distribution via Telegram bots, Riseup XMPP, or peer networks is the most effective way to reach users in countries where BridgeDB endpoints themselves are blocked.

Our offshore IP pools rotate frequently enough that censors cannot trivially scrape and blocklist them. Romania and Iceland egress IPs typically survive long enough to be useful in real deployments. If a specific IP gets burned we can rotate within hours, included in the plan price.

Bridges face less abuse than exits and almost no DMCA traffic, but operators in some countries still prefer to keep their hosting account anonymous to avoid intelligence service interest. AnubizHost requires only an email at signup, accepts Bitcoin and Monero, and stores no telemetry or browser fingerprint about the order session. The operator and the bridge IP are simply not linkable through our records.

If you operate bridges as part of a circumvention NGO or volunteer collective, we can host fleets of small VPS under separate pseudonymous accounts to limit cross-correlation risk. Bulk discounts apply when ordering five or more bridge instances. Funding from grants or community donations is welcome and remains untraceable to the bridge IP.
